Well, I finally got a GPU, that MSI GTX 460. It arrived this afternoon, so I decided to go right ahead and install it.
It was kind of tough getting it into my case. This is what I did to the motherboard getting it in:
So it booted a few times, but it kept rebooting in the middle of the boot process. Finally, it shut off with no warning. Now whenever I switch the power supply on (in the back), it waits a few seconds, keyboard lights blink, the fans twitch, then nothing.
So could the motherboard damage above have done this? If so is there an easy fix? Or could I have fried something in the PSU? Something else?
There goes my main PrimeGrid race machine.
